Are people still thinking O Rodrigo is doing pyramid while C XCX does other stage? Seems like it should be the other way round. Asking for a friend who wants to see N Young and XCX. 

 

You know O Rod is massive right? She's sold out Hyde Park. XCX can't even sell Victoria Park which is much smaller.

Not doing too many UK dates though. Don’t know much about either of them but the young adults/teenagers in my family who are going to Glastonbury reckon O Rod hasn’t done anything of note for a while whereas C XCX is now more relevant. Other stage seems a bit small for her now.

You're overlooking the fact that, despite selling fewer tickets and fewer records than O-Rod, Charli still the bigger artist.

I refute this (based on publicly available information at least): O-Rod is 1.65m tall, while Charli is only 1.6m tall.

You seem to have neglected the fact that everyone has to be on their knees in the presence of Charli XCX 

That's hilarious !

O Rod is surely bigger than Charli XCX, who I think is only huge within a very specific demographic (18 - 22 year olds?) that the Glastonbury demographic must skew older than

Methinks you people haven't heard of a little thing called Brat Summer.

Is that why she still hasn’t shifted her Lido tickets? 

 

The idea that she’s gonna cause a problem for Other stage when she hasn’t managed to shift 30k tickets is a bit strange.

I think @NorthernSoul52 is trying to MANIFEST Duran Duran! 🤣 Well I'll get back to manifesting Nick Cave. Would be a hilarious wtf is this dude for the O-Rod fans and I would be happy with both 😆

I mean, I'll happily manifest Nick Cave in there! Just assume if he's running solo, the Bad Seeds are out!

I feel I'm missed the chat there. Was there any info? Or is this just a wish and a prayer for everybody?

I don’t think there was any info about Chappell not doing it unless I missed something, but people trying to work out where Pulp might fit if they’re playing. Pulp could be before Neil Young and Chappell still on the Sun

My Duran Duran speculation came from their tour dates, the Chic connection and an apparent softening of the stance on their slot. (Le Bon long basically said it was headline or nothing.)

 

That being said, I cannot find any empirical proof for said stance being reduced. Chappell, it seems, was ticked off in a piece by The S*n, who have of course doubled down on The 1975 as a headliner, so maybe the Sunday figures.

Is she also being dramatically overexaggerated on here? She's "alright".

There's always variations in who would prefer to see what though right? I prefer Muse to Coldplay, but am aware Coldplay sell more tickets.

I’m 51.. can’t name a single O-Rod song but a huge fan of Charli xcx since 2012 when I Love It came out.. Brat is huge.. lots of similarly aged friends are into her.

    • I don't think they are too big for Castlefield these days. They've not had a new album for almost a decade and they like playing smaller venues. Maybe multiple nights is another option as they do like residencies 
    • Second half of next week I would expect for stage times.
    • made a last minute decision to go to Belladrum festival.   it was absolutely wonderful.   never been before, to be honest I think I was expecting a stage in a field and a burger van, but its nothing at all like that.   the site is beautiful, its small enough to get around, but big enough that there are things to discover round each corner, there are a good number of small stages tucked away.   you could quite easily convince yourself you were in Glastonbury in places.   I may have only been one time, but already learned a valuable lesson - the site itself may be Glastonbury like, but the "general camping" campsite is very much Reading like! as the morning mist rises... its a view like the Do Lung Bridge scene in Apocalypse Now...   so if you are not 15 years old, go to family or quiet camping which is fantastic.   its a real family friendly festival to - loads of families and kids of all ages running round and stuff for them to do.   I would 100% recommend it, and I really can't see any reason why I wont be going back next year!   🙂 
    • In terms of a Manchester/Leeds date, Wythenshawe? Too big for Castlefield Bowl, Kirkstall Abbey, Millennium Squade
